Let's see...well, we started doing AMAs 😛, but feature-wise we've added: reactions to articles (the unicorn reaction is up for interpretation!), notifications, a smarter home feed, and the ability for organizations to self-create their own accounts (we used to have to do that manually). Oh! And the #hiring board.

We're in a unique position where the community has the ability to build itself. When we open source, we hope people will jump in and start building out enhancements they want to see. We can make dev.to more robust, very quickly. We're also excited for our codebase to generally improve because we'll have more eyes on it keeping everyone accountable. We come from the belief that sharing work is what's best for the world and open source software is always the best software, so that's where we want to be.
